Russell is excellent with his clients. He's always available and very compassionate. Highly recommend his services.

Russell was great! We had false claims against myself and 2 coaches. Fortunately, everything has been cleared. But, because of the disorganization of USA Gymnastics' Safe Sport (now Safety and Response), it took over a year.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Russ and everything that he has done for me. I called him up one day, completely unsure of what I was doing with my case, my story, and SafeSport. Russ gave me all of the answers and guidance that I needed, and helped me get the closure that I was searching for. There is no one else I would have rather gone to, and I am extremely grateful for everything Russ and his company has done for me.

Within the inconceivable place of having to deal with the US Center for Safe Sports guilty until proven innocence injustice system, Russell and team will be your only hope. If you are a coach in any sport, I’d recommend calling him to proactively protect yourself for the day you receive and unexpected notice of allegation. If that day happens, and I pray it doesn’t for you, he will be your first call and again only hope to fight for your reputation and career.

In 2019 I met Russell because I needed his expertise against a system where anyone can say anything and you’re presumed guilty until proven innocent. The ability to publicly disparage reputations before an independent objective analysis is provided is an awful place to find yourself. His compassion and guidance has been invaluable for me and my family. I encourage all coaches to proactively reach out to Russell so you can receive guidance on how to protect yourself. He’s just simply the best at what he does for his clients.

Russell Prince is undeniably outstanding and competent at his job. He takes the time to thoroughly understand everyone involved in a case and all aspects of the case he is working on. He is detail oriented to the end and simultaneously able to see the whole picture and instill confidence in the outcome. I will refer Russell time and again.

Russell Prince is a great resource for gymnastics professionals encountering SafeSport issues. He has been involved from the very beginning, when work was being done to write the rules within our sport, and he has been instrumental ever since in ensuring that the spirit and intent of the rules is followed as the administrative and legal procedures have developed. As a gymnastics parent himself, he has a unique perspective within the legal profession. He is the first person I would contact for advice or representation in this field. No matter which side of an issue you find yourself, you may decide that you need legal advice, and Russell has a depth of experience in this area of law that is unmatched.

Early on in the SafeSport era, an ex saw the disorganized organizational structure and illogical and opaque rules as a chance to exact revenge against me for a perceived slight against her. She attempted to take advantage of unqualified and uneducated authority figures to take my athletic career away from me and defame my name and character. Thankfully, Russell Prince was recommended to me by the USOPC Athlete Ombudsman. Russell deftly navigated his way through a system whose rules were changing weekly to make sure the career which I dedicated so much time and effort to wasn't taken away by a bunch of shoddy, transparent lies. At the end, Russell helped expose all the lies that were told about me and protected me, not just from SafeSport, but from the people who were trying to spread falsehoods about me. Russell was a calming presence, gave me good advice, and ultimately was committed to making sure the truth governed proceedings, not theatrics. I feel so fortunate that I had him helping me get through one of the most stressful experiences of my life.

Russell Prince is a godsend. Safesport is a notoriously biased agency uninterested in finding real facts. Mr. Prince has been able to allow us an equal opportunity to air our side of the issue eloquently and passionately. We are grateful for his passion and service.

If I were ever needing questions answered or legal representation when dealing with the Center for Safe Sport, these are the people I would call first!

Through Bryan & Prince's SafeSport education, my coaching staff now has a better understanding of the rules that govern our sport. This knowledge has given them back their confidence to coach with an even greater level of professionalism. It was also beneficial to have Mr. Prince speak to the athletes and parents. Having everyone on the same page allows for open communication between athletes, parents, and coaches. This makes for a better experience for all participants. I highly recommend utilizing Bryan & Prince's SafeSport education as part of your staff and client training system.

When it comes to Safe Sport we do not trust our companies future to anyone other other than the experts at Bryan and Prince! Russell Prince has been the foremost expert in regards to the inner workings of The US Center for Safe Sport since it's inception. Mr Prince has successfully represented and advised athletes, coaches and owners in all matters Safe Sport and has fought tirelessly and passionately for all members rights in every sport under the Safe Sport umbrella. When it comes to your future in your sport there simply is no choice, Bryan and Prince. Jeff & Heidi Beal Olympia Hills Gymnastics USGCOA Region III Board Member
